Disclaimers
This presentation contains forward-looking statements that reflect, when made, our current views with respect to
current events and financial performance. Such forward-looking statements are subject to many risks,
uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, which may cause our actual
results to be materially different from any future results, express or implied, by such forward-looking statements.
All statements that address future operating, financial or business performance or our strategies or expectations
are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words
such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,”
“projects,” “potential,” “outlook” or “continue,” and other comparable terminology. Factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those discussed
in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, incorporated by reference into the prospectus,
including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.  New risks
and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may
affect us. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as
a result of new information, future events and/or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.
This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS.
These measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in
accordance with GAAP and may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. We are unable to reconcile
our projections to the comparable GAAP measure because we do not predict the future impact of adjustments
due to the difficulty of doing so.

Driving Success with Speed, Scale, Strength
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are not measures of our financial performance or liquidity under GAAP
and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance, cash
flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or any other performance measure derived in
accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these measures are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for
management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest
payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. These measures contain certain other limitations,
including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs and cash
costs to replace assets being depreciated and amortized, and excludes certain non-recurring charges that
may recur in the future. Management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP
results and by using these measures only supplementally. Our measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted
EPS are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential
inconsistencies in the methods of calculation. We are unable to reconcile our projections to the comparable
GAAP measures because we do not predict the future impact of adjustments due to the difficulty of doing so.
